The Mandrake installation cd will reinstall the bootloader for you. When the installation screen comes up, hit some buttons (it is pretty clear) for other options and go to rescue mode. One of the menu items eventually displayed will reinstall lilo.

So my faith in Linux is wavering ;). Turned on my computer this morning, the dell spash screen showed up, then what normally happens is a comman appears at the top for a flash of a second saying Lilo 93 or some command, or something, then the Mandrake linux screen shows up letting me choose if I want to go to my linux partition or windows partition. Instead, when the Lilo or whatever command shows up, the screen shows Li99 99 99 99...for a few rows and then stops. Anyone know what the problem might be or what the remedy is? Please help, I cant get to my windows partition or anything, so I am screwed right now for all my work.
